Default Dash lights out

The dash lights on my 2000 Civic EX have gone out. Not the back lights on the dash they work fine. The gauges are lit from behind ok, but the gauge needles are dark. Are their lights in front of the displays??

there are no lights in front of the gauge cluster. they're all backlights. one of the backlights probably burnt out. there are multiple bulbs behind the cluster.

yeah, take the cluster out and you should find at least one burnt out bulb.
